The Surrey Sounds Jingles were legendary. Most of the jingles were recorded at a certain BBC London radio station studio by a certain BBC DJ in 1982. We did have a go ourselves and the best was for the Steve Day late Breakfast show which started with a jingle recording of Gladys frying Bacon, Eggs and sausages in the kitchen.
